Twitter is killing off its Discover tab

• Verge

Does your Twitter app look a little different today? That's because, as Twitter announced in a blog post this afternoon, it's putting its Discover tab out to pasture. The feature was a favorite of co-founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey, but has been stagnant for some time. Twitter says it will focus instead on Recaps and MagicRecs.

Recaps is the selection of tweets marked "While You Were Away" that pops up when you open the app. It's a peek at what has been trending on your network. MagicRecs provides recommendations of what to read and who to follow. Twitter has also put a lot of focus into perfecting the new user experience, suggesting which accounts people should follow when they first arrive to help them avoid the confusion that has curbed its growth.
